3x2x150m on turf

Really dry and intense sun but not too hot, 75º at the Sewanee track but I stayed on turf.  I was thinking about running a hard 300m on the track to see where I am, but I didn't ... better to stay on turf and save the foot.  The foot felt slightly better today considering I ran last Monday and stadium stairs on Thurs.  Maybe the foot is beginning to adapt.

Hoka trainers on

stretches, drills, bands, 2 x 100

Hoka Rocket X2s on

2 x 150m w/ 30 sec rest - 24.12, 26.40 (max HR 181)

2 x 150m w/ 30 sec rest - 24.40, 25.72 (max HR 182)

2 x 150m w/ 30 sec rest - 24.55, 27.60 (max HR 183)

I was determined to get 6x in today, one more than last time.  Would have been better if I could have done 2x3x150, but I started too fast for my fitness and HR hit 181 30 sec after sec rep of set one.  

Still in terrible shape.  Just an uptempo 100m strider pushes my HR to mid 160s.  

Still too heavy but happy to finish today at 143.3 lbs, a full 4 lbs lighter than yesterday. FOS I guess.  

Last yr at this time I was able to do 3x300m w/ 3 min, barely but I did it.  Not even close right now.  2 yrs ago, 4x150 w/ 30 sec rest at 25 low.  My speed is compromised by not being able to get completely on my toes, more forefoot than ball of foot.  Hopefully that will improve.
